Childproofing is a pretty good idea for those that have kids and want them to have the Puppy experience. It's also good for family members that might not normally use a Linux box. Either way, I'll have fun testing it.

Greetings slenkar {?spell check}
best good guess? try navigating to /usr/local/apps
if iicon is in that folder? just drag it back to your desktop.
Hope I guessed it right.

or try /usr/share/ applications and then find browser desktop icon {might be "default browser}.
Then you can drag/copy to your desktop..Once on desktop you can right click on the icon on "edit" the name..such as "do not remove"..-hahaLast edited by bobtron on Tue 25 Feb 2014, 09:31; edited 1 time in total

A ".pet" file is actually a tarball, that is, a ".tar.gz" file, except that it has a 32-byte md5sum (file integrity verification code) appended on the end of the file.
All that the "pet2tgz" script does is remove that trailing md5sum. All that "tgz2pet" does is append the md5sum.

.... thanks, folks ....sorry if I am now drifting somewhat OT but, Bill, am I correct in inferring from the Barry quote that the .pet process is self-checking download-wise (assuming that the download is completed fully)?

If so, sheesh! - I never knew that - every day is still a schoolday!

Exactly... a .pet file has the md5 embedded.
It does not 'self-check' on download, only when it is opened.
That is why you never see a list of md5 for .pet files.
